Email Notification Errors - "Access Denied"

Why am I seeing an "Access Denied" message when trying to access a notification email?

The "Access Denied" message appears for security reasons. This verifies that only users with the correct permissions can view the discussion linked in the notification.

You can view the comment (for which you received the notification) by doing either of the following options (whichever you prefer):

  • Login to your LMS (for example: Canvas/ Blackboard/ Birhghtspace-D2l/ Moodle) and then click on “View the discussion” button in this email below (the “access denied” massage you are getting is because your session was ended. Logging-in should solve that).

  • Go directly to the video and see all the comments (each will have its time-tag). The name of the video ansd the name of the course are mentioned in the original notification.
